FRANZ LOUIS BREMER, OF MONTGOMERY, ILLINOIS.

IMPROVEMENT IN MECHANICAL POWERS.

v Specification forming-part of Letters Patent No. 130,696, dated August20, 1872.

To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, FRANZ LOUIS BREMER, of Montgomery, in the county ofKane and in the State of Illinois, have invented certain new and usefulImprovements in Churn and Pump Powers; and do hereby declare that thefollowing is a full, clear, and exact description thereof, referencebeing had to the accompanying drawing and to the letters of referencemarked thereon making a part of this specification.

The nature of my invention consists in the construction and arrangementof a power for operating a churn, pump, or other machine where anup-anddown motion is desired.

In order to enable others skilled in the art to which my inventionappertains to make and use the same, I will now proceed to describe itsconstruction and operation, referring to the annexed drawing, which is aperspective "iew of my power.

A represents a pump, churn, or other machine in which a plunger, piston,dasher, or other device is to be moved up and down. Such plunger is, bya rod, a, connected with a lever, B, pivoted to a suitable standard.This lever is, on the other side of the pivot-point,

provided with a weight, 0, to counterbalance the weight of the plunger.This end of the lever B is, by a rope or chain, 1), connected with anarm, D, projecting from the upper end of a swinging lever, E,'the lowerend of which is also provided with a weight, G, and with handles d (I.

It will readily be seen that verylittle power is necessary to be appliedat the weighted end of the lever E for operating the pump or othermachine connected with the lever B.

Having thus fully described my invention, what I claim as new, anddesire to secure by Letters Patent, is-

The arrangement of the pivoted lever B with weight 0, connecting rope orchain b, arm D, and swinging lever E with Weight Gr, all as herein shownand described, and for the purposes set forth.

In testimony that I claim the foregoing I have hereunto set my hand this25th day of June, 1872.

- FRANZ LOUIS BREMER.
